With typical hot and rough Havasu conditions,
Baron put his experience to the test in the ATV
race. Coming off the start third, he ran a consistent,
steady and smooth race, taking the lead late in
the race and cruising to victory, padding his
points lead.
“I set a pace early because I knew it was going
to be hot and rough and I just tried to maintain
that pace,” said Baron. “Havasu is not to be messed
with, so I just tried to ride a smooth and steady
pace. The Roll Design Elka Suspension worked really
well. A big thank you to Doug Roll for making
my shocks stiffer because this place really requires
a stiff suspension.”
Baron has now won every Pro ATV race this season.
He is well on his way to his sixth championship.

“It’s important to get the wins done early,”
said Baron. “That way later in the year you can
take a second or a third and not worry about the
points. I’m pumped to be here. I’m not getting
any younger. I’m 36 now and I’m clipping along
with these kids.”
While mechanical issues sidelined Baron in the
Pro Stock SXS race, he showed how it’s done in
the Pro SXS race. After starting 13th, he quickly
moved through the field to net the top five.

“I came front the second row and got fifth, which
is fine for Havasu,” said Baron. “The track is
so rough, and at one point, I locked up a wheel
with a rock. All in all, my turbo kept going.
The course was brutal. There were a lot of deep
ruts out there. We were almost high centering
around the turns at the end, and the lagoon jump
was difficult this year.”
Unfortunately, in Pro Stock a mechanical issue
sidelined Baron early in the event after he won
the last two races. He now sits second in points
and ready for redemption.

“I started coming through the pack, but I had
a major issue,” said Baron. “So I salvaged a finish
and got some points.”
Baron will be looking for his fifth ATV victory
and a return to greatness in SXS Pro Stock as
WORCS next heads to The Orleans in Las Vegas for
a special indoor event. That race is scheduled
for March 31-April 2.
